Can we make the LOGIN function be sticky... constantly having to re login is a such an annoyance.

For clarity, are you suggesting that a user stays logged in...always?

yes... after a few hours I always have to relog in.. which means I have to refresh all the pages (flight finder with all my likings (Distance/ 150 routes shown etc)... just annoying to have to go through 10 keystrokes to get everything back up.

It's much better like this. Security isn't great if you stay logged on permanently. If it's a pain, you can save your password in the password manager in your browser. Then all you need to do is press the "Log In" button.

It still requires all the keystrokes to relog in... what security issues arise by remaining logged in?

There are not many website that I can think of which keep you logged in 24/7........... secondly I'm not understanding why the 10 extra key strokes are such a big deal..? Lastly, from you post it says you have to set up all of your likings. If you were to pick an aircraft, for example the A320, you'd be able to find all the flights for that aircraft, so I'm just not really understanding the annoyance.

I'm not talking about websites that you close and then reopen... yes, I can see needing to re- log in. But I leave mine up. You have to put your name and password (three strokes), reload the find a flight page (four), change tabs in qualifiers (distance/ 150 results/ 1/ check never flown) that's EIGHT... the select the airline again... NINE... I was off by one. I had to do that entire sequence THREE times today. I'm currently only a member here, but have been a member in other VA's and the logins always remained sticky. Except for my bank account, I don't have to re login to any websites I use to be honest.

When you login, you get a security token that remains valid for 8 hours; if you access the site with less than 15 minutes left in the token, you'll get another 4 hours. If you're losing your token, perhaps your IP address is changing a lot.

Cheers!
